Why my WAGNER 0278712C does not start up?

  If your WAGNER Paint Sprayer isn't starting, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the sprayer is properly plugged in and the ON/OFF switch is in the ON position. Check the fuse and replace it if it's blown. Verify that the wall plug provides adequate voltage and that the extension cord isn't damaged or of insufficient capacity. If the sprayer was turned off under pressure, set the PRIME/SPRAY knob to PRIME. If the thermal overload has tripped, allow the motor to cool in a cooler environment. If none of these steps work, there may be a motor issue.

  If your WAGNER Paint Sprayer starts but doesn't draw paint, there are several possible causes. First, try priming the unit again using the PRIME/SPRAY knob. Ensure the paint bucket tube is fully immersed in the paint. Check and clean the suction filter, suction tube valve, inlet valve, and outlet valve to ensure they are not stuck. If the inlet valve is worn or damaged, consider replacing it.

Why does the pressure drop when I trigger the gun on my WAGNER Paint Sprayer?
- B
  Betty LaneAug 15, 2025
  If your WAGNER Paint Sprayer draws paint, but the pressure drops upon triggering the gun, the issue could stem from several factors. A worn spray tip can cause this; replace it with a new one. Also, a clogged suction set filter, gun, or spray tip filter can restrict flow, so clean or replace the appropriate filter. If the paint is too heavy or coarse, thin or strain it to improve flow. Lastly, a damaged or worn outlet valve assembly or a worn inlet valve can cause pressure drops; clean or replace these components as needed.

What to do if the thermal overload tripped and shut off my WAGNER Paint Sprayer?
- Y
  Yvette AndersonAug 19, 2025
  If the thermal overload of your WAGNER Paint Sprayer has tripped, it's likely due to the motor overheating. Allow the unit to cool for 30 minutes. If you're using an extension cord, ensure it's not too long or of too small a gauge; replace it with a shorter or thicker cord. Also, check for and clean any paint buildup on the motor. If the motor was started under pressure, restart the sprayer in PRIME mode. Finally, if the sprayer was sitting in direct sunlight, move it to a shaded area.

  If the paint pattern from your WAGNER Paint Sprayer is tailing, it could be due to several reasons. Try increasing the pressure. Check and clean the gun or suction filter, as they may be plugged. Ensure the suction tube valve is tightly fitted at the inlet. If the tip is worn, replace it. If the paint is too thick, thin it out.
